Frat emails reviewed by school officials on gossip site

A Dartmouth College fraternity has been suspended while it's being investigated for possible hazing.

The school placed Beta Alpha Omega on immediate temporary suspension after college administrators reviewed possible internal fraternity emails published on a gossip website.

College spokesman Justin Anderson told the Valley News (http://bit.ly/17xauay ) that the college suspects the fraternity's members have participated in hazing, provided alcohol to minors and engaged in behavior that threatened physical harm.

The website Gawker published emails on Tuesday that were believed to have been from fraternity members.

Dartmouth's Safety and Security office also is investigating a sexual assault. Officials say the suspect, who told the victim he did not attend Dartmouth, may have been at a Beta party the night of the alleged assault last weekend.
